I needed a gift for my groomsmen for my wedding in about a month. I hassled with myself between this set and some much more expensive cystal decanter sets ($150-$185) on other websites where I knew I would be guaranteed good quality. I finally decided to buy these (not a lot of extra money floating around), and that I would return them if they were not of a reasonable quality. 2 of the 3 sets I ordered came in today (4 days with the free shipping option), and I inspected all pieces. I own a more expensive decanter set already that I bought overseas, so I didn't expect to be too impressed, but I was. The weight of all the pieces is similar to the Waterford Crystal. Almost like heavy glass, but it says right on the box... 24% Lead Crystal. The cuts in the glass are not super fine, but are more than acceptable, and give a very attractive look to this set. The ball stopper is extremely heavy and though not frosted, seats well in the neck of the decanter for a nice seal. I thought the decanter itself looked small in the pictures, but it's not, it is a standard size (24 oz or so...guessing). We pealed back the paper on the silver tray, and it was mirrored nicely without blemishes (not that the tray really matters that much ayway). Again, this set is not just a good set for the money, it's a good set.... and the price makes it truly a steal. I would be more than happy to display this set in my home and offer drinks from it to any class of company. I know the gift will go over well, don't hesitate to buy this unless you just want top-notch crystal and desire to spend more money. Great product.

I have been looking for this kind of crystal items for a long time, nothing I found with this quality and relatively low priced. I would have spent $200 for this, if I had have seen this in the shops.
I am lucky that I happen searched in Amazon, exactly the classic design I have been looking for. after item arrived, I am impressed with the super quality, the weight, really heavy glasses, plus simple designed silver plated tray, just perfect! This set is very tasteful, classic, elegant, very upscale! I recommend 100%. This was made in Slovakia. This is one of my few best purchases! I can imagine to keep it for home forever, I will never get tired of this set.

The glassware is really heavy and that's great. It has a nice thickness to it. The silver plate tray it comes on is more-or less how people described it, not of the greatest quality, but if you go in knowing that you won't be disappointed as the set is a great value. Every couple of months you need to POLISH the tray with silver polish. I give it 5 stars because I got more than what I wanted with this.

Received this decanter set today. Great packaging and quick delivery. The decanter is really beautiful, as are the glasses, and the tray is nice but average to poor quality. Keeping in mind that this is not high-end, fine crystal, it does however make a lovely showing. Great set for the money. Recommend set and seller. Gave it 4 stars due to tray quality.

All of these Godinger decanters are good quality and attractive. This is an especially good buy because of the glasses, which are nice, heavy-weight, double old-fashioneds. The round, all glass, well-fitted stopper gives some oomph to the design. Very nice and worth the money. This even came with a silver tray. I'm about to buy a second set so that I'll have 12 glasses and four (all Godinger from Amazon) decanters.

This arrived relatively quickly, with absolutely no pieces marred in any way. These glasses and decanter are of a heavy weight and have a nice design on them. My husband was thrilled to get them for Christmas '09. The tray is not horrible, but it doesnt fit in with the finer look of the set. It looks too 'fake' I guess I would say. We just dont use it. It is a good price for a set of Godinger. I would definitely recommend this to someone looking for a set that is not too cheap, but that cannot afford one for a couple hundred dollars. Great quality for the price.

Ordered this as a Christmas present for that "impossible to buy for" guy of mine. When the box arrived and I inspected the set I was very impressed. The crystal is made by Shannon Crystal in Ireland and is a very nicely cut set. The silver tray is sturdy and looks great. I know my guy will love it, and I bet yours will too!

"Lead Crystal set is Gorgeous and Commands Attention. The glassware looks and feels more expensive then it is. A fantastic value in just the glassware alone, but the serving tray is cheap looking and does not match the quality of the crystal. Mine arrived with a major scratch, and a lot of rust like pitting all over it. I did not contact the seller to exchange the tray because even if the tray was perfect, it would still look cheap underneath the glasses. Another Great Amazon Find!!

My fiance and I had picked up a set of the Dublin crystal and soon found out the decanter set had been discontinued in most stores. So I knew that my trusty amazon would have it!! I have to say that amazon shipped it so fast, I didn't expect it for 10 days but it came in 2 days! It was more beautiful in person than online. This crystal set has a nice weight to it and it is nice and solid. This set is traditional enough that it will never go out of style. I highly recommend it!

This crystal set, which includes a highly polished silver tray, will dress up anyones bar or table top. The set is of fine quality crystal and a very good purchase.
